CobbleStone Software Joins Civic Marketplace to Simplify Public Procurement

The integration addresses a common bottleneck in government technology acquisition, where lengthy procurement cycles often delay the deployment of essential digital infrastructure. As an awarded vendor under the TXShare program, administered by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, CobbleStone’s solutions meet established compliance standards, including Uniform Guidance requirements. This allows agencies to secure pre-negotiated pricing and terms through a digital storefront rather than starting a multi-month solicitation process from scratch.

"Public sector agencies face immense administrative pressure to modernize their operations quickly and transparently," said Mark Nastasi, CEO of CobbleStone Software. By utilizing the Civic Marketplace, buyers gain the speed of an online shopping experience while maintaining the security of a competitively awarded contract. Eligible organizations, including schools and local governments, can access the platform to deploy contract lifecycle management tools, vendor management, and AI-powered procurement features immediately after completing an interlocal agreement.
